A New Dawn Awaits Us

This thoughtful post by lifelong Democrat and AirBnb cofounder, Joe Gebbia, is well worth a read:

I have a confession to make:

I did a bad thing.

Something the younger me

Would hate myself for doing.

Something that only a few people (and maybe Bytedance) know:

I voted Republican last November.

I know, I know

I can hear the crush of disappointed voices: Say it ain’t so, Joe.

And yes, I can hear other voices cheering in the background, welcome to the club.

Red Pill Moment of Tech Investor, Marc Pincus

Very interesting revelation from a lifelong Democrat:

“Then, in May 2024, I read an article that talked about Trump’s speech in Charlottesville, where he said there are good people on both sides, and the article said it was completely propaganda and didn’t actually reflect what he said. That he denounced the Nazis a bunch of times in his speech, so then I went and watched that video, and that was my red pill moment.”

“I think it was for a lot of people because it wasn’t just the media or politicians spinning it. That speech was one of the pillars of why you were supposed to hate Trump. Then you see Biden say that’s why he had to run a second time, and Obama says it, and Biden brings it up again at the DNC.”

“They clearly know they are misrepresenting things, so for me, that was beyond uncomfortable. Now, I have to go back to first principles and look at the primary data, listen to only original speeches by people, and I just realized I couldn’t trust the mainstream media.”

Mock Vijaya Gadde Day!

While we eagerly await Trump’s inauguration on Monday, I propose we denote January 19th, 2025 as “Mock Vijaya Gadde Day”!

If you’re not sure who Ms. Gadde is, let’s step backwards in history:

  • Nov 5, 2024: Donald Trump is elected as President of the United States of America for the 2nd time.
  • Oct 27, 2022: Elon Musk took over Twitter, later renaming it to X.com.
  • Jan 8, 2021: Vijaya Gadde, legal counsel at Twitter, was instrumental in permanently suspending Trump from Twitter.
  • Mar 5, 2019: Gadde, Jack Dorsey & Tim Pool appeared on Joe Rogan’s podcast.

If you’re not clear how all of this is connected, here’s a summation:

  • If Elon Musk had not bought Twitter, there’s a strong argument that Donald Trump would not have won the election, for America would have remained in the Dark Ages of highly censored free speech.
  • Vijaya Gadde is an anti-free speech advocate, and thus an anti-American social justice warrior. She had no moral right to ban the President of the United States, yet felt no qualms with doing so.
  • History will applaud Tim Pool for being one of only a few journalists with the courage to push back against Gadde’s lies and half truths.

So the day before Trump’s inauguration, raise a fist in the air and shout, “Fight, fight, fight!!!” against despicable little apparatchiks like Vijaya Gadde.

Gavin Newsom & Elizabeth Warren Reach New Lows

Just when you thought that politicians couldn’t do something more despicable, along come California Governor Gavin Newsom and Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren. Here’s what Newsom posted yesterday:

If you click on http://californiafirefacts.com, you’ll be taken to his campaign website. That’s not the real problem. When you get there, click on the Donate button. This will take you to an ActBlue website. ActBlue, a Democrat fundraising organization, will take almost 4% of your money to fund Democrats. Elizabeth Warren is doing something similar.

As people are dying and tens of thousands of homes are smoldering, these two are using this tragedy to fundraise. Trump calling Gavin “Newscum” is proving accurate.

Styx has thoughts.

Who exactly is Janisse Quiñones?

There is something very fishy about the hiring of Janisse Quiñones. Take a look at her past experience.

There is nothing about her past jobs, all relatively short tenures, that suggests she was at all ready to become the head of the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power.

Whether she was paid $1 per year, or the reported $725K per year, she seems entirely inexperienced for this job. And now, tens of thousands of residents have lost everything due to her utter incompetence.
